Salvation Checklist

FORGIVE AND BE FORGIVEN CHECKLIST

To be forgiven, we must extend forgiveness to others no matter how severely they have wronged us.

Matthew 18:21-22

Then came Peter to Him, and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Till seven times? Jesus says to him, I say not to you, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

Part 2

SACRIFICE CHECKLIST

Without God’s help, we are unable to become the individuals that He intended us to be. Our responsibility is to repent (change our thinking about sin), give our lives to Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to perform His life-altering work inside of us. The scriptures instruct Believers to work out their salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12). This implies that we must give up our self-centered lives and get rid of negative attitudes, habits, and words with the assistance of the Holy Spirit, “and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless” Ephesians 5:27.

The bible clearly states that you can not serve two Gods.
